Rule 49 disclosure is the mandatory financial and case-related disclosure required by Arizona Rule of Family Law Procedure 49. It requires both parties to produce income documentation, tax returns, financial account statements, asset and debt information, business records if applicable, and child-related information in cases involving children.
Rule 49 disclosure is not optional and it is not negotiable. Both parties must comply regardless of whether they believe the information will help or hurt them. The consequences of failing to disclose include sanctions, adverse inference instructions, and exclusion of evidence at trial.
